Salvinorin B is the major deacetylated metabolite of salvinorin A (Item No. 11487).{36003,34652} It reportedly lacks pharmacological activity in vitro and in vivo when used in unperturbed systems. It binds as an agonist at the κ-opioid receptor (Ki = 2,950 nM; EC50 = 248 nM) but does not elicit antinociceptive effects even after i.c.v. administration. However, salvinorin B is a ligand for the inhibitory G protein-coupled κ-opioid designer receptor exclusively activated by designer drugs (DREADD; KORD; EC50s = 11.8 and 160 nM with high or low levels of KORD expression, respectively).{38358} It leads to hyperpolarization and inhibition of neuronal firing in neurons expressing KORD and has no effect on neurons transduced with mCherry as a control. Salvinorin B increases locomotor activity in VGAT-ires-Cre mice expressing KORD in the ventral tegmental area and substantia nigra, increases food intake in SIM1-Cre mice expressing KORD in the paraventricular hypothalamus, and decreases food intake in AGRP-ires-Cre mice expressing KORD in the arcuate nucleus. Salvinorin B can be used in combination with clozapine N-oxide (CNO; Item No. 16882) because it is inactive at Gq-based DREADDs. Salvinorin B is also available as an analytical reference standard (Item No. 11488).
